‘The kingdom of heaven is like a king who prepared a wedding banquet for his son.

He sent his servants to those who had been invited to the banquet to tell them to come,

but they refused to come.

Then he sent some more servants and said,

‘Tell those who have been invited that I have prepared my dinner:

My oxen and fattened cattle have been butchered, and everything is ready.

Come to the wedding banquet.’

But they paid no attention and went off—one to his field, another to his business.

The rest seized his servants, mistreated them and killed them.

The king was enraged.

He sent his army and destroyed those murderers and burned their city.

Then he said to his servants,

‘The wedding banquet is ready,

but those I invited did not deserve to come.

So go to the street corners and invite to the banquet anyone you find.’

So the servants went out into the streets and gathered all the people they could find,

the bad as well as the good, and the wedding hall was filled with guests.

But when the king came in to see the guests,

he noticed a man there who was not wearing wedding clothes.

He asked, ‘How did you get in here without wedding clothes, friend?’

The man was speechless.

Then the king told the attendants,

‘Tie him hand and foot, and throw him outside,

into the darkness,

where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.’

For many are invited, but few are chosen.’”

Here’s…Classic Newsboys with a great reminder!!

Hold the milk, put back the sugar They are powerless to console We’ve gathered here to sprinkle ashes From our late friend’s cereal bowl

Breakfast clubbers, say the motto That he taught us to repeat “You will lose it in your gym class If you wait ’til noon to eat.”

Back when the Chess Club said our eggs were soft Every Monday he’d say grace and hold our juice aloft Oh, none of us knew his checkout time would come so soon But before his brain stopped waving, he composed this tune

When the toast has burned And all the milk has turned And Cap’n Crunch is waving farewell When the big one finds you May this song remind you That they don’t serve breakfast in hell

Breakfast clubbers, drop the hankies Though to some our friend was odd That day he bought those pine pajamas His check was good with God

Those here without the Lord, how do you cope? For this morning we don’t mourn like those who have no hope Oh, rise up, Froot Loop lovers; sing out sweet and low With spoons held high, we bid our brother “Cheerio!”

I see my life sometimes and I ask why… My heart became like stone and turned to ice… Tell me, what have I become? But You came just in time like a shooting star… Across my universe out of the dark… Tell me, what have I become?

Take me away, You save me from myself and all I do… ‘Cause life just ain’t the same when I’m with You…

I can climb the sky!!

You got me… Walking on, wa-walking on the stars… (Walking on, walking on the stars)

I see life through new set of eyes… Set on someone different that I never realized… Outside my mind is a lost world that lies… But step into my thoughts, you’ll believe you can fly… Your words like wings, gravity they defy… My heart like a leaf on the wind catchin’ rides… They say we can’t make it, at least we gotta try… We make too much sense, to foolishly pass it by… So I’m taking a rainbow up to the 5th floor… Steppin’ out to see that You’re really worth more, and I… See our love in 3d, no more 2 dimensional worries… Climb until the sky don’t exist no more… That’s when I’ll knock knock on Your front door… Open to the possibilities I ignored… But I know now exactly what our love was meant for…

Take me away, You save me from myself, and all I do… ‘Cause life just ain’t the same when I’m with You…

I can climb the sky!!

You got me… Walking on, wa-walking on the stars… (Walking on, walking on the stars) Now, I can see my life from way up high… And now the troubles I once knew, I left behind…

I can climb the sky!!

You got me… Walking on, wa-walking on the stars… (Walking on, walking on the stars)

And I can see, much more clear… When I’m lost in Your atmosphere… You pull me close, to the place… Where You’re always waiting… So I won’t stop, the walls are down… Make my way at the speed of sound… Hold me now, hold me now…

Take me away, You save me from myself, and all I do… ‘Cause life just ain’t the same when I’m with You…

I can climb the sky!!

Genesis 1:8

And there was evening, and there was morning—

the second day.”

Genesis 1:14-19

“And God said,

‘Let there be lights in the vault of the sky to separate the day from the night,
